The hotel had very very basic and quite old-fashioned rooms with comfortable beds and en-suite facilities. The cramped space was noticeable due to a tiny en-suite shower-room built into the room, limiting storage options. The service was exceptional, with the staff going above and beyond to assist guests, even fulfilling special requests. The location was convenient, just a 10-minute walk into the town center and overlooking a garden. The dining experience, catering to special dietary requirements and offering early breakfast service, was enjoyable. However, the facilities were somewhat limited.

The hotel provided a good stay with spacious rooms featuring 3 beds, a flat-screen TV, ample plugs, bedside tables, and a kettle for tea and coffee. However, the rooms appeared worn and in need of refurbishment with a cramped feeling due to a small en-suite shower room. Despite the space challenge, the room still offered convenience with available facilities and some storage options.

The hotel was a mixed bag with some pros and cons. The rooms were adequate in size with some amenities but appeared tired and in need of refurbishment. The service was a hit or miss, with some staff members being very helpful and attentive while others lacked friendliness. The location worked well for my needs, being within walking distance to the town center. The dining experience was decent, although the breakfast portion could be more generous. Overall, the facilities were satisfactory but nothing exceptional.
